Research

My current research interests are within computational morphology and surface syntactic parsing. Finite-state two-level morphology is the area where I have had most success.

A raw list of my publications, and a PDF file of my dissertation, see the list of publications of the department, No. 11. (which is available for personal use)

"Man vill bli älskad,
i brist därpå beundrad,
i brist därpå fruktad,
i brist därpå avskydd och föraktad.
Man vill inge människorna någon slags känsla.
Själen ryser för tomrummet och vill kontakt till vad pris som helst."
-- Hjalmar Söderberg "Doktor Glas" 1905
